Now this is love.

"For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God." 2 Corinthians 5:21 WEB

For me and for you. Once for all. CHOOOCHOOO!!!

"I Live In The Real World" - Part 2 of 2

Some of life is on-the-job training but don't live in constant battle. You need time to rest, re-energize. The best time to learn God's promise is when all is well. Who trains for battle while in one?

Using God's word in the midst of trouble is a key strategy, but prepare for battle. Make it a lifestyle to speak God's promise over your family and friends. Remember Jesus told the devil, "It is written..." and he left (but only for awhile). Let the devil know that you know what you know.

Study Psalm 91. It is a good promise.
Psalm 91:16 "With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation."

See tomorrow is promised.

"I Live In The Real World" - Part 1 of ?

One might say, "What can God do for my problems? I live in the real world". NEWSFLASH!!! God cannot do anything else. He did it all when Jesus Christ came and died for us. Jesus said, "It is finished". John 19:30 The rest is left up to you.

God's word is His promise. An attack begins in the spirit so, attack the spirit. Pray God's word. Isaiah 54:17a, covers a multitude and promises that no weapon formed against you will prosper. Pray it daily over your family.

"Let him that stole steal no more: but rather let him labour, working with his hands the thing which is good, that he may have to give to him that needeth." Ephesians 4:28 (KJV)

Our former Pastor discussed how people can make God's word fit their agenda.

"Let him that stole steal, that he may have to give to him that needeth. No more let him labour working with his hands, the thing which is good." Hezekiah 4:48 (MOV) :D

Sounds like the Robin Hood Effect. Steal to give to others. lol Learn God's Word so you know when someone is pulling your leg. Take a bible to church. Fact check the Minister. Don't just take his word for it.

By the way, there is no book of Hezekiah and MOV means "My Own Version". lol

No Word, no God. Know Word, know God.

Here is a two-fer (two for one). EG2 and a question.

What does the last sentence mean to you?

"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love." 1 John 4:18 WEB

"For this is the message which you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another;" 1 John 3:11 WEB

Love is not hard. "You don't love me", says one. "Yes, I do", says the other. Can one truly determine whether another loves? I say, No.

People often base love on a standard of what one does for or to them, or not. There are many ways to love. I can truly say I love everyone. I love because God does and He said to. Who you are and what you do has nothing to do with it.

To love isn't to be confused with like. One can love another but not like them. To like "is" based on a standard. When necessary, I can set aside the fact that I don't like someone. For instance, to accomplish a task has nothing to do with liking you. But, as Whitney Houston sang, "I will always love you". <3

I love this by William Shakespeare.

“Doubt thou the stars are fire; Doubt that the sun doth move; Doubt truth to be a liar; But never doubt I love.” ― William Shakespeare, Hamlet
